Which fork would dominate, infinite supply bitfuck or OG 21m BTC? As I said: “The magic of economic solutions is you neither need believe nor understand them for them to work”
Money is commonly explained as a solution to the Coincidence of Wants, but why do we wish to trade in the first place? Why not take what you want by force? Because we’re “good people”, or bound by a statist fairytale “social contract”? No! Because trade (voluntary exchange) is positive sum. Money, then, is not Medium of Exchange, but a facilitator of voluntary exchange.
This is what John Pierpont alluded to when he opined “gold is money, all else is credit”, not that gold had any magic “moneyness” as the shiny rock fetishest believes, but that gold could be trusted, while man could not. Nature provides a fairer game than man’s promises ever could.
Bitcoin goes beyond gold: fixed supply, transparent ledger, non-physical & weightless. Nature’s perfect game, not mere happenstance of natural properties, but fixed and defined through Her immutable mathematics. Not the use of a physical good for an abstraction, but the abstraction itself, the platonic ideal of Value made cryptographic flesh. Not a facilitator, but a guaranteer of voluntary positive sum exchange in-the-limit, protected from the diseased slaveminds and the parasitic oligarchs by an impervious firewall of voluntarity.
Statists don’t understand bitcoin, but they fear it. For good reason, as they are of the Adversity. They see the sword of Damocles above their heads, feel the noose tightening around their necks, and beseech their false god for “bitshit to go to zero!” or a comp’d shitcoin to usurp the King, all in a futile hope of prolonging their parasitism. Their prayers will go unanswered, their god is dead, only We, the superorganism Economy remain, and We are guarding all the doors and holding all the keys.
Shhhh, no tears little statist, only gravity now.

BTC only needs to be used for the most significant transactions as they're the most significant.
Unit of account, money-as-tally-board, is the systemic function of money, this is a vital economic function as without the signaling of money we could never autonomously organize into the mutually beneficial superorganism that blankets the earth like a planetary slime mold.
All monies before BTC were trust-based. Yes, even gold, as it's physical nature requires centralization and abstraction to be used as unit of account. As Szabo notes, trusted third parties are a security hole too large to leave open in money, using someone "real trustworthy" isn't a fix, the problem is the TTP, if you remove trust from money it can't be corrupted.
Trust based money will always be corrupted because it's too good a score, it's the best place to parasite, and once corrupted the corruption will spread as you're now rewarding corruption. This process is hugely negative sum as you're fucking up the signaling of money. The world is falling into BTC as it proves a truer economic signal, BTC will continue to reward adopters as that is what the positive externality of trustless money yields.

>social safety nets entitlements and regulation
Supply-side labor subsidies, slavemind.
>billionaires could change the system
Bottom-up, not top-down dull little statist.
Voluntary exchange, not some statist fairytale "social contract" frees us from the hobbesian war of all-against-all. We autonomously organize into the human superorganism that envelops the globe like a planetary slime mold because voluntary exchange is positive sum.
"The most for the most" is the unrelenting march of this superorganism because that's the most stable state, the invisible hand is an entropic process. It's why central planning can't work, and why the "governs least governs best", we're already always autonomously moving into a more stable state, entropy.
Money is economic signaling, it signals "this is/isn't a viable path forward", corruption of money is negative sum as it distorts that signaling.
As Szabo notes, trusted third parties are a security hole, using someone "real trustworthy" to guard money isn't a fix, the problem is the TTP, if you remove trust from money it can't be corrupted, trustless money provides an incorruptible signal and is therefore entropically favored and will happen in-the-limit.
